What is the EcoChallenge? To put it simply, it's a competition where we all take small steps toward sustainability, cheer each other on along the way. There are even prizes! Change one habit for Earth.

We’re always up for a good challenge — who isn’t? So, when we were faced with the task to find additional and alternative uses for our upcycled gear, we took the bite. After all, our motto is “Excess Made Useful.”

Recently we became of a growing movement called Plastic Free July. A month long challenge, it’s aimed at raising awareness of the problems associated with single-use disposable plastic and challenges us all to reduce our usage

We make many of our products here in the USA. The bulk of our product development is performed in our workshop in Portland, Oregon. Products are designed, mocked up and sampled by our team of makers and sewers. 

25% of fresh water in the US is used to produce food that never gets eaten, simply because it isn't pretty to look at, despite being perfectly edible.

Because imperfect produce isn't sellable due to purely aesthetic appearances, many farms do not attempt to sell it, and simply throw it away.
